Internships
Supervised practice with international host organisations in social enterprises and services.
All areas of workInternships
The placements are not ordinary work or study periods abroad. The KBT concept is carried into the placement itself: the focus stays on marginalised and weak voices, through direct 1:1 contact with people and small user surveys. South Africa and India are the first destinations, with Brazil, China and the UK planned later. In India the placements are coordinated with Shiksha Bridge EDU India: groups of 10–15 students, vetted host organisations, a named local mentor, and programmes from four weeks up to three months.
